“In the latest installment of the Twitter Files, journalist Matt Taibbi reveals the far too cozy relationship between a variety of government agencies and Twitter that led the social media platform to censor even information deemed accurate about COVID vaccines if it was determined the information might encourage vaccine hesitancy. In their zealousness Twitter even went so far as to censor jokes that were deemed dangerous or tweets that might hurt Anthony Fauci’s credibility.
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the rest of the media’s unwillingness to engage with the dangerous implications of the Twitter Files stories.”
They lie about all sorts of things…since long before the pandemic…They like targeting isolated, marginalized and vulnerable minorities…minorities exactly like MAPs…And MAPs Have been viciously targeted.
It’s the complete, total debasement of communication, itself…
…That is exactly what has been going on.
…And, Jimmy is now hocking nutritional suppliments…
…”great”…That’s not going to be horrible optics at all…yeah…
Why does Jimmy continually resemble “the lefts Alex Jones”?…
“Robby Soave comments on a PBS documentary about Dr. Anthony Fauci and his 50-year career, including his effort to get people vaccinated in the final two years of his tenure. #fauci #covid #vaccines According to the CDC, all COVID-19 vaccines currently available in the United States are effective at preventing COVID-19. Getting sick with COVID-19 can offer some protection from future illness, sometimes called “natural immunity,” but the level of protection people get from having COVID-19 may vary depending on how mild or severe their illness was, the time since their infection, and their age.
Getting a COVID-19 vaccination is also a safer way to build protection than getting sick with COVID-19. COVID-19 vaccination helps protect you by creating an antibody response without you having to experience sickness. Getting vaccinated yourself may also protect people around you, particularly people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19. Getting sick with COVID-19 can cause severe illness or death, and we can’t reliably predict who will have mild or severe illness. If you get sick, you can spread COVID-19 to others. You can also continue to have long-term health issues after COVID-19 infection.
While COVID-19 vaccines are effective, studies have shown some declines in vaccine effectiveness against infections over time, especially when the Delta variant was circulating widely.
The mRNA vaccines do not contain any live virus. Instead, they work by teaching our cells to make a harmless piece of a “spike protein,” which is found on the surface of the virus that causes COVID-19. After making the protein piece, cells display it on their surface. Our immune system then recognizes that it does not belong there and responds to get rid of it. When an immune response begins, antibodies are produced, creating the same response that happens in a natural infection.
In contrast to mRNA vaccines, many other vaccines use a piece of, or weakened version of, the germ that the vaccine protects against. This is how the measles and flu vaccines work. When a weakened or small part of the virus is introduced to your body, you make antibodies to help protect against future infection.
Everyone ages 18 and older should get a booster shot either 6 months after their initial Pfizer or Moderna series, or 2 months after their initial Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine. People ages 16–17 may get a booster dose of Pfizer at least 6 months after their initial series of vaccines.
The CDC says A person is fully vaccinated two weeks after receiving all recommended doses in the primary series of their COVID-19 vaccination. A person is up to date with their COVID-19 vaccination if they have received all recommended doses in the primary series and one booster when eligible.
Getting a second booster is not necessary to be considered up to date at this time. A study by The Cleveland Clinic found that both previous infection and vaccination provide substantial protection against COVID-19. Vaccination of previously infected individuals does not provide additional protection against COVID-19 for several months, but after that provides significant protection at least against symptomatic COVID-19.”
“The media wants Twitter GONE, because of Elon Musk. Or something. And many, many articles are now being written about how Twitter is “dying” like Tumblr and LiveJournal before it. Meanwhile, Facebook is working on a Twitter competitor. No, ANOTHER Twitter competitor.”
I think it would be okay, if we actually saw any progress on that committee to restore falsely targeted accounts.
That would at least establish a good faith effort on the part of Elon, that he is serious about dealing with the mess created by past twitter admin.
If Elon keeps dragging his feet…If twitter keeps being run like this…If they keep ignoring, or even keep in place this critical problem of targeting and censoring…
…Then it will be no great loss, when twitter goes down in flames.
…It’s sad so many people conspire to fuck up a [once] really good thing…while so many other people don’t even give a shit, so long as it doesn’t infringe on them.
“Robert F. Kennedy jr. is mulling a run for the Presidency and challenging Joe Biden for the Democratic Party nomination. Kennedy admits that the United States no longer has a functioning democracy, and that the Democratic Party is already manipulating the 2024 primaries and refusing to hold debates — all in order to protect Biden.
Jimmy talks to Kennedy about the 2024 race and why he believes he can break through despite the party’s rank corruption and win the nomination as an outsider like a 2024 Democratic version of 2016 Donald Trump.
“Briahna Joy Gray and Robby Soave weigh in on Matt Taibbi’s and Michael Shellenberger’s testimonies on the Twitter Files before a House Select Subcommittee. Originally aired March 9, 2023”
“House Democrats try to “kill the messenger” with personal attacks against investigative journalists, Matt Taibbi and Micheal Shellenberger, who testified today about the Government agencies colluding with Twitter executives to censor users of Twitter violating the first amendment using tax payer money.”
“Krystal and Saagar discuss the Biden administration pushing for Twitter to reveal contacts with journalists in the wake of the Twitter Files being released.”
“Elon Musk has stepped in it again. The Twitter boss seemingly mocked a terminated Twitter employee for asking if he still had a job. After some back and forth, it turns out the guy was disabled and was even lauded by the UN. After apologizing, Musk admits that Twitter isn’t the place for any kind of in-depth, good-faith discussion. So basically, nothing has changed since Musk took over Twitter?”
Elon should also apologize, because it’s been six months [or more?], and where is this committee that’s supposed to restore falsely suspended accounts?
It seems Elon has not done dick, to correct the gross misdeeds of previous twitter.
“More VTubers are fighting back against the Hogwarts Legacy bullies, including Pipkin Pippa. This after activists pushed Pikamee into early retirement. Then we talk about how HasanAbi, who was actually calling out the behavior early on, is now seemingly on board with it?!”
“There is no more glaring example of Democrats’ abandonment of the working class than the situation faced by the Warrior Met Coal miners in Alabama who have been on strike for nearly two years while receiving little to no support from prominent Democrats in that time.
Jimmy and Seattle City Councilor, activist and dedicated socialist Kshama Sawant discuss Democrats’ betrayal of working people and the need for a new working class party in the United States.
